Day 447 - Stickers, and a turn for the worse

Jamie helped me run the stickers through the planer. Help was much appreciated with this task. There was a lot of back and forth and over and over with this task. Also, running wet wood through the planer has turned out to be one of the least desirable things you can do in woodworking. It's just frustrating. The wet wood requires waxing the table frequently, and the infeed roller clogs easily. When the roller gets clogged up, you have to either push or pull the wood through. Frustrating, but not the end of the world.

Skeeter Boy, our dog of 16 years, is not doing well. I quit working early to spend some time with the little guy. He's been a part of our family since the beginning. He was the last litter from a Shih Tzu and a toy poodle that my mom and stepdad had. We've had him since he was just a puppy. Jamie carried him around in a fanny pack when he was little. He loved it :)

JK Boots:
Hands down, without question, the best outdoor working boot that I have ever tried. They aren't cheap and they aren't inexpensive. The break-in period was brutal for me. But after some boot oil and a few working days for them to conform to my feet, I've never worked in anything as form fitting and comfortable.

My Lineup:
- O.T. Bison Canyon for everyday work
- Superduty Bison Shadow Roughout Smooth for earth work days
- The Buck Indigo Chocolate square toe western for days where quick on and off are valued
